How to print or watch NC drill file?

Leeya

I generated a NC drill file.But I don't know whether it is right or wrong. So I am trying to print it out. How to print the drill file out or see it as a picture(not x y number)?

Thanks 

I am using allegro 16.5 

  • Before you create the drill file, use Manufacturing, NC drill customiztion to set all the fields as you would like. Then use Manufacturing, NC Drill Legend to place the drill legend on the board.  When you do this it will also show the information you requested.  Open you color dialog box and under Manufacturing you will see a new Subclass Nclegend-1-2.

  •  Most free Gerber tools have the ability to read a drill file and show where the drill marks are. 

  • Setup your Manufacturing/NC/Drill Customization as you wish.  Then select Manufacturing/NC/Drill Legend and place the legend, at which point it will also place all the drill location in the view you require.  The subclass will be under Manufacturing in the color dialog box...Nclegend-1-2.
